I will be reposting a series of research posts that I have put up on my other blog quite some time ago. I am preparing a history of the U.S. Naval Academy during a crucial time in the history of our nation. It is a project that I have been researching and planning for almost thirty years now.

These particular posts are an outgrowth of my research, items that I have noted that most likely will not make it into the book that I am writing. I have found them interesting, and I hope that you will also.
